The widespread emissions of toxic gases from fossil fuel combustion represent major welfare risks. Here we report the improvement of the selective sulfur dioxide capture from flue gas emissions of isoreticular nickel pyrazolate metal organic frameworks through the sequential introduction of missing-linker defects and extra-framework barium cations. The results and feasibility of the defect pore...

Selective isolation of Kunitz trypsin inhibitor (KTI) and lectin from soybean whey solutions by different types of chitosan beads was investigated. The chitosan beads were co-crosslinked with tripolyphosphate/genipin in solutions at pH 5, 7 or 9 (CB5, CB7, CB9). The maximum adsorption ratios of chitosan beads to KTI and lectin were observed at pH 4.4 and 5.4, respectively; highly selective sepa...

A urinary glucose assay has been investigated, employing a micro flow injection analysis (microFIA) combined with a separation technique of glucose from the analyte. The adsorption part using activated alumina for the glucose in the analyte can be successively integrated onto a microFI chip. The selective adsorption-desorption of glucose in the artificial urine can progress on the adsorption pa...

The design of inexpensive and less toxic porous coordination polymers (PCPs) that show selective adsorption or high adsorption capacity is a critical issue in research on applicable porous materials. Although use of Group II magnesium(II) and calcium(II) ions as building blocks could provide cheaper materials and lead to enhanced biocompatibility, examples of magnesium(II) and calcium(II) PCPs ...

The design of molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) for the specific binding hydrophobic molecules (mitotane) was investigated by considering monomers and cross-linking agents with variable character, methyl methacrylate, butyl methacrylate lauryl as functional monomers, ethylene glycol dimethacrylate 1,6-hexanediol agents. MIPs were bound to a porous silica support means radical transfer react...

A molecularly imprinted silica gel sorbent for selective removal of 2-Hydroxybenzoic acid (2-HA) was prepared by a surface imprinting technique with a sol-gel process. The 2-HA molecularly imprinted silica gel (2-HA-MISG) sorbent was evaluated by various parameters, including the influence of pH, static, kinetic adsorption and selectivity experiments. The optimum adsorption capacity to the 2-HA...

background: the rapid increase in agricultural and industrial development has made heavy metal pollution a serious environmental problem and public health threat; therefore, removal of heavy metals from water is important. the current study prepared dnph@sds@fe3o4 nanoparticles as a novel and effective adsorbent for removal of hg(ii) ions from an aqueous solution. methods: a selective adsorbent...

the molecular sieves are selective adsorbents. they can adsorb some kind of molecules that are different in size or shape from the others. in separation of n-paraffins from iso-paraffins and aromatics, sa molecular sieve is the suitable adsorbent, and can adsorb n-paraffins to separate them from other hydrocarbons. in this paper equilibrium isotherms of n-cs, n-c6 and n-c7 from an inert solvent...

Spinel type lithium manganese oxides (LMOs) are promising adsorption materials for selective recovery of from salty brines.

A structurally simple low molecular weight hydrogelator derived from isophthalic acid forms robust pH-responsive hydrogels capable of highly efficient and selective dye adsorption.
